Did you read all the responses on the topic you referenced?

This is a cache issue that will resolve itself after a while.

How long? The same topic you referenced links to a Pages support article that says:

Asset retention

We will insert assets into the cache on a per-data center basis. Assets have a time-to-live (TTL) of one week but can also disappear at any time. If you do a new deploy, the assets could exist in that data center up to one week.

Try purging the Cloudflare cache, disabling the proxy in DNS settings, and enabling Development Mode. If the issue persists, redeploy the site and wait a bit. Let me know if it works
